The Economist says, "America is just weeks away from a mighty economic shock". Thing's might no be so bad, folks. Thank fuck.

Never forget that the same people lecturing you on ‘muh basic economics’ also think:

• austerity literally for austerity’s sake is the most economically sound idea
• protectionism is good
• Income inequality is good and porky can handle all the consumer spending all by himself
• trickle-down will start working any second now
• we should subsidize oil
• car-centric infrastructure is our top priority and walkable cities with public transportation is the only form of ‘austerity’ they don’t like
• that we should keep the number of participants in the economy as small as humanly possible because “muh efficiency”

Then Elon Musk would be Yegor Gaidar. This photo strengthens my case:

And Peter Navarro would be Jeffrey Sachs, I guess?

Occupy’s revenge when?
